Sure, there is "potential" but do we mistake that for the thought of "easy money"?

Makes me think. Seriously.

It makes me think that you should know a lot of teen traffic does pretty well promoting BarelyEvil.com

Seriously, that whole mega-corp employer thing is a lie. They tell you to get good grades so you can get into a good school, so you can get a good job and a good life. The coporation expects you to have total loyalty, but it will sack you without notice if it feels vaguely short some week, it will squander your 401k without concern, it will promote based on your color and gender and faked religious decency and family background and who you suck up to and whose work you can steal credit for because there is rarely enough time to climb the corporate ladder and get actual work done at the same time. Then, if you are lucky, you get forced retirement when you've got 30 years yet to live.

Integrity is within you. There is nothing about this business which is intrinsically lacking in integrity. You just have to do the right thing so you can look yourself in the mirror. Do not accept other people's judgements; make your own.

There was a time when people believed that you could work for a good company your whole life and it would take care of you. It was only sorta true then and it is utterly not true for our generation.
